{catching up!!} - MARCH 2014 : Spontaneous Mommy & Paisley Trip to Newport Beach

My girlfriend, Tricia, surprised Paisley and I with a trip out to visit her in Newport Beach, CA.  She spontaneously called me up at 8am and by 5pm that day Paisley and I were on a plane flying to her beachfront oasis.  We spent 3 nights and 4 days touring Newport Beach, Corona Del Mar, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach and Crystal Cove ... just us girls!  Being that it was Paisley's 2nd trip with just mommy, she was a pro!  She loved flying on the airplane and was a dream at the airport. (Even at 20 months of age.)  She was so excited to be in California that she was continuously giddy & giggly the whole trip; on walks & stroller rides, at restaurants & shopping and of course on the beaches.  
Thank you Tricia for the fabulous surprise vacation, we loved spending time with you!!!
Off we go .. with a carseat, stroller, suitcase, carry-on bag & pac-n-play (not to mention a 20 month old)
I rocked it at the airport!! 
 We made it to Newport Beach!!!
Great View to wake up to :)

STUNNING!!!
 Next Stop - Crystal Cove
 Paisley adored the beach & her freedom!
 We ended the evening with cocktails on the pier & watching the sunset :)
 Good Morning Huntington Beach
It was a chilly morning so we walked the pier with coffee in hand 
& watched the brave surfers tackle the rough waves.
Oh how I love Laguna Beach
Typical - Mommy Chasing Paisley around & her giggling with glee the whole time!
 Best way to spend our last day in Newport Beach ... shopping at Fashion Island!
Delicious goodbye lunch at Great Maple :)
 Leaving on a jet plane ... Goodbye Tricia!! We will see you soon!

{catching up!!} - APRIL 2014 : 1st Easter EGG Hunt - 20 months old

With Easter around the corner and now that Paisley is almost two ... she loved her 1st Easter Egg Hunt!
She ran around the yard picking up the sparkly eggs and putting them in her bunny basket. 
Of course I had to dress her up like a bunny!
Enjoy :)
